Dunlin, Grey Wagtail

An area of exposed mud has appeared just opposite the Wine Press, which has been attracting gulls and Lapwings of late. This morning there was a Dunlin with them too.  A Grey Heron flew across just a little further up the road, and from the hide, apart from the usual Teal, just a Grey Wagtail appeared briefly.

On the south side of the Lake, the Buddleia bushes appear to have sprouted some new-ish flowers, and there was just one butterfly on them, a late-ish Red Admiral.
